I always have some very bad dry cough in a year and I am again having it and additionally I also get very tired, appetite loss as well as headache and pain in my upper shoulders. I did consult my village doctor and he gave me rexcof dx syrup and mucobar cold tablet plus symbiotik tablet but it is of no help and I also did gargled with salt water and keeping myself hydrated with lukewarm boiled water. Honey and ginger is also of no help. Please let me know if its severe? Because I always get scared during this illness.
